.@AndrewYang is one of the 10 candidates who has qualified for the third #DemDebate next week -- and his national polling avg. is up to 6th.

Bernie Picked The Wrong Fight With Andrew Yang

Obviously, the Democrats can't have both Bernie Sanders and Andrew Yang. So who is it gonna be?

To Bernie's credit, the idea of a shorter work week is not that bad. How about you work four days a week, not five? But a reduced work week is not an argument against the UBI. They are apples and oranges.

Andrew keeps coming at Universal Basic Income from the technology angle, the artificial intelligence, and robotics angle. And I believe his projections are valid. But projections are projections. Many of those things have not happened yet. The retail jobs are mostly still here. Truck drivers are still driving their rigs.

But what is already here is inequality. I like Elizabeth Warren's wealth tax idea. Marry that to the UBI idea. The inequality that already exists and keeps getting wider every year is extremely harmful not only to democracy but also capitalism. And the best way to narrow the gap is by applying a wealth tax to fund a UBI.

And if the technology arguments come to be, we will also use that Value Added Tax (VAT) to expand the UBI. I can see the UBI going up to $2,000 a month down the line. Technology could give economic growth rates of 50% in future years. You don't want all of that to end up with the top 1%. They will just end up fat and lazy.

This is a fight Andrew must relish. That is the only way for him to go into the double digits.

Unless he wins either Iowa or New Hampshire, he is toast. He is perhaps Secretary of Labor and not the president. More likely speaker and author and CNN talking head in 2021.

Universal basic income, and universal health care are two ideas that belong together. Andrew Yang does need to own Medicare For All if he has a fighting chance.

Is Trump ushering in a new 'Gilded Age' of income inequality? https://t.co/EKY1LQ0H2H

#YangMediaBlackout

#YangGang we have dealt with @AndrewYang being left out from MSM too long. @CNN fixed their graphic from yesterday, but what about next time? We shouldn't have to have to raise an outcry for people to #YoutubeAndrewYang or #GoogleAndrewYang. Its time to end the #YangMediaBlackout

I was thinking that the media may not want @AndrewYang to be the nominee because he talks policy and acts how we would want a politician to behave. This would not be great ratings for media. Better to have a narrative of division then actual policy. #YangMediaBlackout #YangGang
— Maya (@seenmaya) August 29, 2019

The fact that the Real Clear Politics average has @AndrewYang in 6th place (& rising) despite the #YangMediaBlackout is a testament to the unique strength of the message & messenger. It motivates all of us in the #YangGang to work even harder - and to make history in 2020.

Older Americans still get a lot of their election coverage from local and cable news. The #YangMediaBlackout is obfuscating Yang's policies from these crucial voters! #YangGang #Election2020

Blatant Racial Bias Against Andrew Yang In The Mainstream Media

And this is supposed to be the "liberal" media.

Could Andrew Yang Become President?

CNN: "Yo MSNBC, hold my beer!"

(@AndrewYang got 3% in this poll which apparently they simply had no room for… Also each of the other missing candidates got 2% or less.)

Holy shit. They did it.

Could Andrew Yang Become President?

The guy has the greatest momentum. And he is the only one with a solution. This is an interesting development.

If you don't "get" Universal Basic Income, you don't get the fourth industrial revolution. You have no clue what's happening in Silicon Valley.

I am not surprised Elon Musk has endorsed Andrew Yang. (Note: Elon Musk is an immigrant.)

Andrew Yang is not a white guy. He is not even black. He is not even Chinese. For America to elect someone like Andrew Yang would be a huge statement to the world. That this truly is a country of immigrants. Not just European immigrants, but immigrants, period.

I can imagine a Yang-Kamala, or a Yang-Pete, or a Yang-Tulsi ticket, with Bernie and Warren leading the fight in what might be a Democratic majority Senate after 2020. All that they want they can get done through the Senate.

If Andrew Yang is serious, he is going to have to own the Green New Deal, he is going to have to own health care and education too. He is in a great position to emphasize technological innovation will play the lead role in solving the climate crisis. The easy solution is to stop subsidizing dirty fuel. Clean is competitive.

The paradox of the situation is, if America goes the Donald Trump route, it gets routed fast. By 2030, it might have lost its aura and status. But if America goes down the Andrew Yang path, it continues to hold up. Andrew Yang keeps America great.

But from 3-5% to 51% is a long journey. It is too early to tell. But a lot of Trump supporters are switching to Yang. Trump has been the Pied Piper. Yang has been the data scientist. He has crunched the numbers and is telling it like it is.

UBI is not free money any more than Social Security is free money, or an auto insurance check is free money. It is just the economy evolving to the next level.

Andrew Yang is raising plenty of money. If he were to plow back 30% (at least) of all money raised into micro-targeting on the major digital platforms like Facebook, and Google, and Twitter, and Instagram, he will manage to overcome the old media handicap that he seems to be facing. Frankly, old media has been exhibiting racial bias against him. He is not getting the coverage his numbers show he deserves. Yang 2020 needs to become a video factory. Micro target with 30-second videos that will go viral. Or 90.

The socialism vs. capitalism debate is dated and unproductive. We need to break out of this simplistic mindset and pass legislation that would benefit all Americans, without regard for labels that are rapidly losing their relevance.

Andrew Yang is the Elon Musk of politics. It is amazing that he has a monopoly on the Universal Basic Income idea. That UBI is the only solution to the tremendous economic tranformation. Hint: it is not the wall.

If he can win the first four states, he has both the nomination and the presidency. Right now a glass of water could beat Trump, with or without a recession.

US Presidential Candidate Andrew Yang Calls for Blockchain Voting in 2020 Elections “It’s ridiculous that in 2020 we are still standing in line for hours to vote in antiquated voting booths. It is 100% technically possible to have fraud-proof voting on our mobile phones today using the blockchain.” ..... Yang, who is a staunch pro-crypto proponent, believes that this coupled with turning election day into a holiday is enough incentive to encourage eligible voters to cast their vote...... “This would revolutionize true democracy and increase participation to include all Americans – those without smartphones could use the legacy system and lines would be very short.” ....... Earlier this year, West Virginia announced that military voters outside of their home country can use a private blockchain-centered mobile app to cast their vote in the upcoming elections. Yang is only asking that the same measure be extended to everyone come 2020 presidential elections.
